  • A Brooklyn family says they are perpetually in mourning, not only over the loss of their loved one, but because of the way they had to say goodbye to her. As CBS2's Lisa Rozner reported Tuesday, they're suing the funeral home because they don't want this to happen to anyone else.

      That’s what I said. I know people that held loved ones for 3 weeks and the only thing different, was the body was a bit darker but still looked peaceful. They didn’t embalm her and they definitely didn’t keep her body in the cooler.

    Seeing your deceased loved one's body is difficult enough even when it's properly preserved. To see the body all rotted and mangled has got to be a type of pain I can't even imagine. And the fact that the family is Haitian, a culture that holds high reverence for the treatment of their dead, makes it even more tragic.

    • @MrMJmusicLover
      @MrMJmusicLover Před rokem

      Because people cannot accept that that's what happens to us when we die. Unless the body is preserved, it will rot, it will decay, it will decompose. Decomposition is a natural process of cleaning up and clearing away what's dead. We are so accustomed to life, that death is seen as ungodly and unholy. We treat death like we do life, if it's beautiful, it's approachable, if it's ugly and rotten to the core, we tend to stay away. It's human nature.

    I've been to an open casket funeral of a person that had been deceased for about 2 weeks, and she looked presentable.
    Prompt body pickup, prompt embalming and preserving of the body, prompt refrigeration of the body are critical. Every single step in preparing a body is extremely, extremely time sensitive. This funeral home really dropped the ball and did this beautiful young woman AND her family a huge disservice. They deserve a refund, and I'm glad they filed a lawsuit.
    I'm glad this funeral director seemed emotional, apologized or attempted to apologize..but it's a too little, too late situation. You have to do things on strict protocol, and the way her body was presented...besides the decomposition, I cannot even imagine their horror and mental, emotional anguish!!!
    They deserve a full settlement and refund, that won't even take the terrible memories away...but it's the least they can have. I am so sorry this family had to endure this trauma, they were already traumatized by her untimely death.
    Being a funeral director is a calling, it's not just a career. You must take every step to preparing a body as if that person was your own family member.
    Was this beautiful young woman treated like family? Was her family treated this way? Absolutely NOT.
    So sorry to this family 😔

      The horror of seeing the truth of what death looks like. Life's greatest fear........ being dead. I'm not talking about death as in how the body should look as one would remember that person, but the ugliness of the reality of how our bodies look like in the grave. That is what life is afraid of becoming.

      Lost a relative and too much time had gone by for an Open Casket Service but the funeral home NOTIFIED the family of such and so it remained closed! There was no reason for them to receive a surprise at the door. They should have done their fucking job and spoke with the family that it should remain closed and then offered their services for free because of their failures.
      Absolutely terrible, immoral in how they were all treated, especially Regina.

If they’re into cutting corners like that then they should just shut down. No family deserves to deal w such at an already difficult time. Especially w as much as these funeral homes charge.

When I went to view him he looked like he was several pounds heavier than he actually was in the stomach and abdominal area. When I asked why, they said he was probably stuffed with newspaper because they didn't sew him back up. ALSO...they kept my husbands ashes for months before they released them to me, even though I was promised I'd have them in a timely manner. I called and called, and was promised a return call, but never heard back.
      I'm sure there are reputable funeral homes out there, but some of these people make thousands of dollars off of grieving, and vulnerable family members, and yet they take advantage. It's unbelievable!

    This brings back memories of my brother who passed in January of last year. It was during covid. The mortuary would not let my mom see the body. He died in January and his services weren't until April. And they let us finally see his body a week before his services (almost 3 months later). He was unrecognizable. He pretty much looked like a mummy. His skin/body was black looked like he was burned. Horrifying. They said it was because of how long he had been in the freezer but then why weren't we allowed to see him when they first picked up his body.....I never wish this upon anyone.

In Islam we muslims bury our loved ones within 24 hours. And it is for this very reason that the body of the deceased should not go through this. Once doctor gives cause of death and signs death certificate we go straight into burial process. We don't even like doing post mortems like cutting the body giving it stress but only if that is not in our control like when police is involved to find cause of death incase of murder than we follow law and body stays in morgue for either days or weeks. But we try our best to avoid delays and unnecessary post mortems and just get on with burial and leave our loved ones to rest in peace and be with the creator.

    The funeral home should not have waited days to get her body. A body can decomposes very quickly; within 24 hours after death if not embalmed or refrigerated. The funeral home director was right when he said factors that contribute to decomposition is HEAT. He did say that her body was refrigerated. Was it really kept refrigerated or just left out in the heat? Either way this is very disturbing and totally unacceptable the way that her body was presented at the funeral.

      The fact that they had the body parts covered with plastic bags should tell you what you need to know. I don't believe they refrigerated the body for 2 weeks and it may have had something to do with insufficient burial insurance or lack of money. Funeral homes charge by the day for refrigeration. My grandmother passed away last December and we had to wait for family members to come back from vacation. She was refrigerated for over 10 days and she was still recognizable. My family was in contact either the funeral home and director every other day. My grandmother had VERY good burial insurance so they funeral home had no problem with getting paid. My dad passed in January 2021 on a Wednesday and we buried him that Friday. We had no problems. I think there was a problem with money covering two weeks of storage and other expenses. If a person doesn't have a lot of money to bury his or her deceased relative then he or she should opt to bury it cremate the deceased as soon as possible. You cannot wait 2 weeks and expect things to go well. Maybe they should have buried the woman and made a video of the funeral. Funeral homes only care about money. We all need to prepare for things like this and not be caught off guard bc other ppl don't have the same concern for your deceased like you would.

      @@mufasasounds1765 "her body shouldn’t have looked that decomposed ", you saw pictures ? Embalming fluid does have an odor. Does it get stronger after 2 weeks ? Does this place have other similar complaints ? $6k with 2 weeks storage, that's below market rate

      @@tomservo5007 You are making things up as you go. Where did you get that the family wouldn't take "no" for an answer? Secondly, the funeral home hasn't denied that the body was decomposed, and didn't report that it was decomposed when they took it from the medical examiner's office. There also pictures of the body while at the medical examiner's office, and the body was not decomposed while in the medical examiner's office.

      It was the responsibility of the funeral home to notify the family that the body had decomposed, and further, that there would be challenges in making the body presentable. They didn't do that. Instead, they hid the body from the family as long as they could using lame excuses - such as, "she's naked right now" right up until the funeral, and then used GARBAGE BAGS on the body the day of the funeral to hide the worst areas of decomposition. If nothing else, that *alone* shows the unprofessional conduct of this funeral home. Whether there are other *documented* complaints is completely irrelevant. We have proof in the use of the garbage bags alone in how unprofessionally THIS body and THIS family was treated. Any funeral home that would do this is a disgrace.
